Help! My 8-year old son is a constant whiner. I've tried to find the route of the problem, but no luck. Even simple tasks are met with whines from him. Any ideas/solutions/discipline tricks to break this habit (if that's what it is). He's also very hyper (tested extensively and diagnosed with ADHD which I have methods for control already) Just really need advice on the whining problem. Thanks.

You can do one of two things you can get a tape player and play it back to him when he is doing something that he wants to do. So he will know what he sounds like. Or everytime he ask you to do something whine to him let him see how annoying it is

What types of things does he whine about? And when he whines, what is he saying when he's whining? I can give a much response if I know these things, because I do have tips for some whines, but not all of them :)
